Visit Highfield Priory School

Open Days

We hold open days at regular intervals during the academic year. These are occasions to be enjoyed by all the family; we try to make our open days as friendly and informal as possible. There are activities for the children to get involved in, and tours of the school are conducted by our very enthusiastic pupils. They love to show off their school and everything we have to offer. Open days provide an opportunity for prospective parents and pupils to visit the school, meet the staff and pupils and view the facilities and grounds. All members of staff are available to discuss your child's education.

Personal Tours

In addition to our open days we encourage you to have an individual visit to the school, on a school day, which will enable you to observe the school at work. These can be arranged at a time to suit you and are usually conducted by the headmaster. To book an appointment please contact the school office.

Pupil Taster Days

We invite all children wishing to join Highfield Priory to spend a day at the school with their contemporaries. This allows them to meet their new friends and experience life at Highfield Priory for themselves. These taster days also enable staff to become acquainted with pupils prior to admission to the school.

We look forward to meeting you!

How To Find Us

Our postcode is PR2 5RW.

The school is very easy to get to from the M6 motorway at Junction 31a. You cannot leave the motorway travelling south or get back on travelling north. However other junctions are near.

From the M6 travelling North leave at Junction 31a.

Option 1

From the slip road take the 2nd exit onto Fulwood Row and park in the small car park close to the driveway entrance and walk up into the school grounds.

Option 2

From the slip road take the first exit, then at the next roundabout take the 3rd exit and at the next roundabout take the 2nd exit. You will go over the motorway bridge toward a mini round about and then turn right onto Gamull Lane, then bear right on the bend (the junction with Gamull Lane and Watling Street Road). The driveway leading up into the school grounds is on the right hand side.

The latest from Highfield Priory

Class 6H enjoyed a trip to local retirement home Bethany House recently.

In preparation for the visit, the children had learnt some traditional songs, including songs from famous musicals. Once there, the children entertained the residents with a good old-fashioned sing song and even brought along song sheets so that everyone could join in! 🎤 🎼

The class had also made some Easter cards for all the people who live there which they handed out before sadly having to wave goodbye to all the ladies and gentlemen.

It is always so lovely to see our children forming such good friendships with the residents and it is great to see Highfield’s relationship with Bethany House going from strength to strength! 🙂 🙂Photos from Highfield Priory School's post
